Odim MVP For UNB Ocean Mapping Group

  17/12/2009
The University of New Brunswick, Department of Geodesy and Geomatics Engineering, Ocean Mapping Group has placed an order for an ODIM MVP30 system. The requirements are for the supply and delivery of an underway sound speed and CTD profiling system. The Ocean Mapping Group will utilise the ODIM MVP to assist in their research project entitled “Chirped, Broad-band, Stabilized Multibeam Sonar for Ocean Mapping Research and Arctic Operations”. The project is funded under the Canadian Foundation for Innovation.

 

The ODIM MVP30 is a light-weight electrical winch used for the collection of real-time and continuous sound speed profile information for ocean mapping purposes. The ODIM MVPTM is a self-contained, semi-autonomous device, which collects oceanographic data while the vessel is underway. The sound velocity profiler system includes a computer-controlled winch and deployment.

Hydrographic Survey of Riverbed Erosion

Members of the US Geological Survey were filmed while out on the Missouri River at Williston, North Dakota, USA, performing a hydrographic survey to monitor the state of riverbed erosion. They were using a multibeam echo sounder which transmits sound energy and analyses the return signal (echo) that has bounced off the riverbed or other objects. Multibeam sonars emit sound waves from directly beneath a ship's hull to produce fan-shaped coverage of the riverbed. 


Gauge height at the Williston gauge was approximately 27.65 feet when this video was taken. Additional information about the USGS streamgauge at Williston is available at http://waterdata.usgs.gov/nd/nwis?program=nwisman&site_no=06330000
